It’s a big day in the Spot household.

These are being delivered.

At long last.

I’ve got a wall to paint.

And bins to order.

I’m on my way to the most chic laundry room on the block.

Pictures to follow.

For now, though, I’ve got dust bunnies to clear.

Happy Friday.

I am SO JEALOUS. I was in Home Depot last week and almost cried at the display of washers and dryers. They are just so pretty. I can’t justify it right now, but a really sick part of me finds myself hoping that our washer spontaneously dies. I love the paint color, too!

Oh, how awesome. Our dryer makes the most God-awful squealing noise! It’s horrible!

I so miss my frontloader!! We had to leave it in California when we moved. Oh, the huge loads I could wash! Maybe you could charge the neighbors to come over and use it and offset some of the expense! Gorgeous!

That’s so not fair. Hey, my bedroom is that color. LOVE it. And my laundry room? It’s orange. It is the happiest room in the house. :) I have pictures of the kids at the beach in there, hung in whitewashed frames by really colorful ribbons. Seriously, I love that room.

I love the turquoise with the orange you’ve got planned. And seriously, what can be said about those appliances. They’re more like art. Useful art.

Wow Darcie! I can’t believe I would ever be jealous of a laundry room, but I’m green with envy. I might even WANT to do laundry if I had that. In fact, don’t be surprised if my washer & dryer suddenly break down in the next few weeks.

Um, can’t hear the angels singing….but can totally feel the green eyed monster lurking!!!

NEVER in a MILLION YEARS did I think I would be jealous over a washer and dryer. But its true. Pray for me.
